Here’s the thing. You said “nålbinding is knitting.”

Is it in the same family? Yes. No one’s arguing that.

As someone who is a scientist who studies knitting, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls nålbinding knitting. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing.

If you’re saying “knitting family” you’re referring to the hobby of weaving, which includes things from crochet to macramé to plaiting.

So your reasoning for calling nålbinding knitting is because random people “call fabric crafting knitting?” Let’s get felting and tatting in there, then, too.

Also, calling something knitting or weaving? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. Nålbinding is nålbinding and a member of the knitting family. But that’s not what you said. You said a nålbinding is knitting, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the knitting family knitting, which means you’d call macramé, plaiting, and other weaving methods knitting, too. Which you said you don’t.

It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?

Yeah I guess I agree, 0 to 40 makes much more sense in the context of temperatures humans typically exist in than 0 to 100

Most people I know use their TV speakers. Maybe sound engineers should engineer the sound so that it sounds good in stereo OR 5.1

I hate Nolan. As long as he hates me for having normal speakers, I’m gonna hate him for being an elitist prick

I’m talking specifically about the scene where Okarin grope Luka. It’s one scene, he’s rightfully called out for being a dickhead by everyone, but it’s still uncomfortable to watch

If you think this about Baccano or Cowboy Bebop, your opinion is factually incorrect

starman2112,
@starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

Agreed but not really relevant here

I’m pretty sure the only good song dubs I’ve heard were from Belle. Sucks that the movie is so impressively mid

While most anime doesn’t sexualize minors, a lot of it does, and unfortunately what comes to a lot of people’s minds when we talk about anime is either stuff like Naruto and DBZ where two guys shout at each other until someone wins, or stuff like Kill La Kill where a female character’s power level is seemingly determined by how small their clothes are. Anime would have a much better reputation if shows like ACCA and Mushishi were the ones everyone knew about.

I feel like I want to watch this some more if I could have not seen this scene.

To be fair, that is the only questionable scene in the show. I highly recommend watching it, I’d hate for your only experience of Steins;Gate being the worst scene in it

Yep, we usually have an election the first or second Tuesday of every November. On the one hand it sucks that more of us don’t vote, but on the other hand I’d rather that people who get a ballot and just pick whatever name sounds better not do that

Try finding me in one year when I’ve watched all of those shows

Thanks for the recommendations!

I for one like the new hyperrealistic logo phase. The surrealism phase that comes after is hit or miss

Imagine someone reading this in 50 years like “holy shit this starman guy absolutely called it”

I add words to my online vocabulary first, and when I’m comfortable slipping shit like bet and yeet and based into my comments I start slipping them into my real vocab

Charisma, particularly (but not necessarily) with regard to the opposite sex

As usual, the best dictionary has an entry on it! It isn’t exactly the same as my definition, but I’m not some prescriptivist who’s gonna say it’s wrong

Do u think it’s actually being stored in water vapor in the sky

Yes and no. The quartz in watches needs to be tuned to a specific frequency. They do this by either adding material or taking some away, just like a normal tuning fork. Here’s a video explaining it better than I possibly can, and it’s Steve Mould, so you know it’s worth the watch

128: The Death of Eastern Forests. I’m listening to the hosts talk about CWD and other prion diseases right now, which is a really cool and not existentially horrifying

Fun fact, the Wikipedia page on hentai has a list of common genres, and also some uncensored images!

And yes, it is better if you don’t know! But can you really keep that link from turning purple?

Some of us don’t draw a distinction at all. Shout-out to Elwood’s Organic Dog Meat!

I fucking hate that people have to try and placate an algorithm that might suppress their post because it contains problematic words. I swear I’ve seen the word r*cist more than the word racist in the last year. It’s not even a dirty word!

Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat.
